If you live in Alabama and want to see tonight's total lunar eclipse, you have two choices: Drive west toward the Mississippi River, or tune in NASA's live video feed.

The total eclipse begins after midnight at 3:06 a.m. CDT and reaches totality at 3:45 a.m.

Clouds will cover all of Alabama "a good chunk of the night, unfortunately," meteorologist Christina Crowe said Monday afternoon. Crowe monitors the weather from the National Weather Service office in Huntsville, Ala. A cold front passes across the state later this afternoon and evening, but Crowe said there are "showers and thunderstorms even after the front."
